Flying Ocean

When you awake without me
Sun shining in you eyes,
Making your tears shine
Let them fall.
When tomorrow starts 
And I am not there
I wish you would not cry,
Thinking over things you did not get to say in time.
Feel it all
But without the shimmer
As the feelings leak out
So do I.
Hold on to me,
But don't let me be the anchor.
Heal without my presence
Make yourself feel,
But don't become an ocean.
Let me drown in you, 
And never let me escape.
